My wedding was a princess moment for me. Staring into each others eyes at the end and saying our "untraditional" vows was the most memorable moment of the day - holding back the tears and beaming with pride was the epitome of the day.
Yes, we jet of to the Maldives for a well deserved destress - and to start our life off right (winkwink)
My wedding was planned in two weeks- so I was rushed for booking time. All i knew was that i wanted a traditional Hindi bridal look.
I was lucky to get Bridal dressing, hair and make up from Bella Sue.
My Outfit, jewellery and Accessories were purchased from Bold and Beautiful designs in Umhlanga
Since we tried to do the Indian version of eloping - we hosted the intimate fuction at home in Westville, Durban.
Our back yard was transformed into a beautiful Mandaap with elegant green and White and a touch of Gold.
With just 2 weeks the only real beauty regime i could get into whist running around was drinking plenty of water. this definitely helped the skin moisten up for the extravagant bridal makeup applied.
Exotic Decor turned a few random pictures of what we wanted into a reality.
The red isle, beautiful green and white flowers on golden podiums, accented the beautiful high gloss stage area allowing our Red outfits to remain as the center of attention.
the groom had also been lucky to get the complete outfit and accessories from Bold and Beautiful Umhlanga.
All his jewellery was purchased and personalized at Browns Galleria,
we opted to shy away from a bridal party - to conclude the illusion of eloping
we were lucky enough to have the officiating priest (Pundit Deepak Maharaj of Reservoir Hills) also play as marriage officer to ensure that the union was in fact registered of our chosen date (22.2.22).
The video and photography for the function was captured by Mekhail Salik Photography.
The after function photo shot was done by Bridaltech - Adhir.
If Hubster and Myself count as planners we were 100% on the ball in coordinating and making our perfect day a reality
Hand made by Janine was our service provider- providing an elegant acrylic invitations and memorabilia tying into our unconventional traditional wedding theme
We opted to not have a reception on the day - but plan it for a future date to have the whole "big fat indian" wedding vibes :)
